The captains patches are not compulsory. The League said if the teams want them then they can wear them. It appears that the pats are the only ones not to wear them. Personally I've never liked them. Especially as they ripped the stars idea off McDonalds!

And the Pats are not better than everyone else

Steelers don't either (They didn't last year beacuse they had the 75th Anniversary patch)
